"I am relieved to report that it is a worthy sequel in every way" — Gerald Jonas, The New York Times
"After a slowish start, then, the rather talky narrative here develops into grippingly effective drama -with oodles of twisty-turny plot, an engaging cast, and some enjoyably mellow humor" — Kirkus Reviews
"This splendid effort -faithful to the spirit of the original trilogy, while stylistically more expansive and mature—may well be the best yet" — Kirkus Reviews
"This is a must-read for fans of the Foundation trilogy, and... Remarkably, it's a US bestseller" — Lee Michaels, Pegasus magazine
